Elder Holland passes on.

Post by deacon blues »

This reminds me that the next four senior apostles are Pres. Eyring (92 years old), Elder Uchtdorf (85 yrs), Elder Bednar (73 yrs), Elder Cook (85 yrs). Pres. Oaks is 93. Uchtdorf and Bednar are likely future presidents. Cook not so much.
God is Love. God is Truth. The greatest problem with organized religion is that the organization becomes god, rather than a means of serving God.

So what you're saying is that if the cards fall "right" we could be looking at a Bednar presidency that lasts two decades or more.

God wants people to like him, right?

That would be great for the church, by which I mean it will make it smaller an more homogenous as an unprecedented number of once-faithful members make a beeline for the exit.
